Without going into specifics, because this is a family-friendly portal, Riddle's gimmick is that he partakes in some illegal substances that may lean towards the greener side of the color spectrum. With that said, 'the king of bros' and the jokes he makes on WWE RAW every week just seem like they're not ones that someone as naturally cool as him would make, and consequently, are the penmanship of someone who's over 70 years in age.

That said, Riddle vs. Bobby Lashley for the United States Championship is exactly what the WWE RAW brand needs, especially if you consider how similar the backgrounds of both men are. Despite the ridiculous comedy that both men have performed on the WWE RAW roster, they hail from an MMA background and they can bring that to a pro wrestling environment in a fantastic manner if they're given the chance.
